For clouds in carrara, do you only get one cloud per click of the cloud button?
 How do you get a bunch of nice, fluffy clouds in there?  Tina

right?  Tina

Don't know. when you try to adjust the model are you in the vertex
room or spline room?  

I'd have thought that there would have been shader domains in that
object.

Try a layers list for a master shader, then add a basic layer.  Look
at the "apply this to" box and see what layers are active.   You do
need to apply the shader to the object first (even as a default master
shader) and then add layers, or (IIRC) it won't know what domains
exist.

separate the parts of a room with mapping but the building is complex and it's
